Published: Aug. 26, 2020, 8:30 p.m.

Although it may evoke associations limited to the likes of Bach and Beethoven, classical music is very much a living, ever-changing thing. So today, Erica and Ashley are joined by guests Sarah Koo and Sam Ostroff to discuss the implications of the classical canon and the importance of new works in our musical age today. Tune in to hear their stories on working with living composers, experiences with writing music today, and new music recommendations!
